The second of several upcoming DLC characters for Square-Enix and Team Ninja’s 3v3 fighter Dissidia: Final Fantasy NT is out now to purchase! It is Locke Cole, the crafty thief from Final Fantasy VI.

Locke’s gameplay focus is using stealth and being able to steal from his opponents. While also wielding a slick dagger to assist in his deeds. He is certainly a nice addition to an already padded out fighting game roster.

If you purchased the Season Pass you’ll be able to download him for free, or if not you can purchase him individually just like you could with the Vayne Carudas Solidor DLC back in late April. We should have information on the next DLC character hopefully in the near future, so stay tuned for more!

Dissidia: Final Fantasy NT is out now exclusively for Playstation 4. You can find Locke Cole’s launch trailer attached below!

Square-Enix has revealed it’s first DLC character for it’s 3v3 Brawler game Dissidia: Final Fantasy NT and it is no other than the villain of Final Fantasy XII; Vayne Carudas Solidor. The character will first arrive on the Arcade version of the game on March 14th and hitting the Playstation 4 sometime at the end of April. They had this to say in their press release:

Vayne Solidor, the charismatic antagonist of Final Fantasy XII, will add brand new combat dynamics to the game using his unique playstyle. Vayne is a powerful Vanguard who excels at unleashing devastating combos that overwhelm his foes, whilst also supporting his fellow comrades by boosting nearby allies with his unique EX Skill ‘Writ of Conquest’. In the name of House Solidor, Vayne will stop at nothing to overcome the odds and destroy all enemies in his path.

Seems quite fitting as Final Fantasy XII was one of the few games featured in Dissidia: Final Fantasy NT to not have a villain present.

Prices for the character have yet to be revealed, but as you’ll be glad to know he is naturally included for free for Season Pass owners. You can check out his reveal trailer attached below.

As what seems to be common these days, most games that release are also accompanied by a Season Pass promising varying bits of post-release content spread across the following months of the game’s launch. Dissidia: Final Fantasy NT doesn’t change this form. With it’s launch end of January a Season Pass was launched alongside the 3v3 brawler by Team Ninja, and this is what you get to look forward to with it’s purchase!

The Dissidia: Final Fantasy NT Season Pass includes the following:

-Access to six characters not in the base game, along with their default weapons and costumes.
-Two colour variations of each of those characters’ default costumes.
-Two additional weapons for the above characters.
-Digital mini-soundtrack that consists of five songs from DFFNT and the arcade version of DFF.

It is possible to obtain certain items from the season pass in the base game, but you will receive gil for any items you already possess.

So in short, a bunch more characters will be coming during the coming months. This is pretty standard fare for all Fighting games, and it’ll be great to see some more fan favourite characters from the Final Fantasy franchise make their way to the game.

Since the announcement of the Season Pass and it’s contents, Square-Enix executives have teased who these new characters may be, so put on your speculation hats and use this knowledge to try and hope your chosen favourites are added. This is what you have to expect:

-Male, New (from newer half of numbered Final Fantasy titles)
-Male, New (from older half of numbered Final Fantasy titles)
-Female, New (from newer half of numbered Final Fantasy titles)
-Male, New (from newer half of numbered Final Fantasy titles)
-Female, Previously appeared in the Dissidia Final Fantasy series (from newer half of numbered Final Fantasy titles)
-Male, New (from newer half of numbered Final Fantasy titles)

That is all the information we have. No definitive character details or how they will play, but at least we get an idea what our money is going towards.

The Dissidia: Final Fantasy NT Season Pass costs £24.99/€29.99/$29.99. The characters that release will also be open to purchase separately when they launch later this year.

It may have gone unnoticed by many, and admittedly we are late to the party as well, but KOEI Tecmo and Square-Enix’s partnership with the Dissidia: Final Fantasy franchise didn’t end with the recently released Dissida: Final Fantasy NT for PS4. We also received on the same day a Mobile release in the same series, called Dissidia: Final Fantasy Opera Omnia. Released for both iOS and Android devices from 30th January 2018.

A free to play RPG with much more traditional routes than it’s fighter brethren on console. Where turn based combat returns, but still with some of the new features adorned in the PS4 game, such as the HP and BP systems.

Play as a miriad of famous characters from numerous Final Fantasy titles, including many not featured in the PS4 brawler. With it’s free to play nature anyone with a phone or pad based device can download and enjoy this game. So why not check it out and decide for yourselves if it is a worthy game of your time?

You can download the game from the Apple Store here and the Google Play version here!

Our Chibitan was at the Dissidia Final Fantasy NT Fight Night in Cologne last saturday, for Koei Warriors: Conquerors.

Here’s what happened there:

Upon my arrival at the Meltdown E-Sports bar in cologne, there already was a crowd, waiting eagerly to enter in order to play the new Dissidia NT. The bar opened its door at 3pm GMT +1 and everyone kind of pushed in. We had to show our ticket, which were basically reservations for 2 hours completely for free, and we got a nice wrist band similar to the gamescom ones except they’re not showing your age and 2 vouchers for a drink of choice. It literally could have been anything. From a little coke to a big cocktail. We got a form for a giveaway of the Collectors Edition of Dissidia NT, which we had to fill out if we wanted to participate. If you do not win the Collectors Edition you also have a chance of winning Razor merchandise, like a headset.

In the front, you got a lot of stations for playing Dissidia NT against the CPU. You either could play all alone or with up to 3 people against the CPU. If you wanted to play competitive, you went into the back. 2 rows for 6 players were in the back, which played against each other in 3 matches. And at the wall there were 2 more stations for singleplayer. It’s needless to say that most people were gathering here.

In between those rows, was the evil unlucky wheel. 2 matches were played in default, the third was played with the unlucky wheel, which one player of either group span. The wheel showed which handicap the group gets.

The handicaps are as followed:

2 Joker – No handicap

Ambush – Play with the controller behind your back

Legroom – Play while standing on one leg

Standpoint – Play without using the jump button

running wonder – Play while running on the spot

free from giddiness – While the game loads you have to spin around

Fistfight – Play while wearing fluffy gloves (they used oven gloves)

blind flight – Fight 30 seconds while being blindfolded

mandatory break – You have to wait 10 sec before participating in the fight

The team that won with a handicap on got some nice goodies, a sweatband or a key chain. Those who participated in the fighting at gamescom know exactly what they look like. Because it’s basically the same.

So after your 2 hours slot ended, you were welcome to stay in the bar and you still were able to play but you had a lot of waiting queues. When we left, we were greeted with a pleasant surprise by the staff at the door. We got T-Shirts with Dissidia on it. The same ones, the staff was wearing.

All in all, it was a great event, everything was for free, except for the travel to cologne which wasn’t included in the reservation, and the location was well chosen by Square Enix. The event lasted until 11pm GMT +1 by the way.
